Canada. have extended the deadlines for important benefits offered to Americans who served
in the Canadian Armed Forces] '
during World War. I, it was announced by Veterans Service Of. .
ficer H. E. Nolen. “
It was estimated some time
ago by the Canadian Government that several hundred eligible Americans still had not filed
for Canadian benefits. About. from
27,000 Americans served Canada
during World War II.
The benefits offered include
veterans insurance and reestablishment credit. Deadlines have
been extended till September 30,
1962, from the previous deadline
“of next January 1; in the case
of reestablishment credit, the
deadline is 15 years after termination of service in the Canadian
Special Force, or September 30,
'1962—whichever is the later date.
Virtually all persons who were
ever eligible under the Canadian
Veterans Insurance Act may now
purchase this-pro ion, providing they do not ady have the
maximum of $10,000 allowed on
any one life. . ¥
Canadian veterans residing outside Canada are eligible for reestablishment credit, but may use
it only for the purchase of veter.
ans insurance.
Additional ‘benefits for Canadian service veterans who live
outside Canada include pension,
treatment, an educational assistance for children‘of the war dead.
A Canadian «service . veteran
who has a disability which he
considers ‘ might« be: pensionable
may obtain fulk-information on
pension matters by writing to

been granted by Canada may be
given, on authorization of the

the children of -those who have
died as a result, of war. service,
is’ not available’ ‘outside Canada.
However, such children may receive this assistance if they un+]
dertake.suitable courses of study

Dividends Help
Keep Up Pemiums
More than a million vetérans
who have GI life insurance policies are using their regular annual dividends to guard against
the loss of their insurance, the
Veterans Administration says.
The VA announced that $253,500,000 in dividends would bé paid
during 1960 to more than five million veterans an servicemen who
hold participating GI insurance.
GI policy holders may have
these annual dividends held—with
interest—by the agency as a
credit to pay premiums monthly
if the policy holders fail to pay
them before the end of the 31-day
period.
This procedure is followed automatically if the policy holder does
not request other disposition of
his annual dividends, the VA explaine, but the policy holder has
two other options. .
He may use his’ annual dividends to pay policy premiums in
advance, or he may request the
VA to pay his dividends in cash,
the VA said.
Holders of permanent plan policies have a third option. They .
may authorize the VA to hold annual dividends on deposit with inon such dividends left on deposit,
however, are taxable.
The proceeds of a GI life insurance policy are tax-free, and so

1. Education and training ‘allowances for veterans of the. Korean Conflict who are in school
or training establishments underthe Korea GI Bill, and allowances

and non-service connected disabilities.
4. Gants to seriously disabled
veterans for homes designed for

5. Grants for;'motor vehicles
to veterans who. lost their sight
or lost the use of limbs.
6. Death benefits to families
of deceased” veterans, These include. death compensation and
pension, burial allowances,. indemnity and all GI insurance
payments,
7, World War I emergency officers retirement pay. (On California tax returns, armed forces
pay in excess of $1,000 during the

Most Tetanus Cases
Laid To Home Jobs
Tetanus is a highly fatal disease in California and “home puttering’ is blamed for most of the
cases,
The State Department of Public
Health in a report to Governor
Edmund G. Brown said there
were 22 deaths in 43 cases during
1959.
“The most frequent. injuries,”
the report states, “were puncture wounds caused by nails, toys
and splinters in the course of
home repair work, gardening and
yard cleaning.”
